[quote=Anonymous]Make it a soft spot to land for a short while. Then you make it increasingly uncomfortable as time goes on. Meaning: rent free for one month. Then a contract and house rules are written up. Including an amount of rent and that he must hold a job working 40+ hours a week. The rent can be nominal at first while he gets his feet under him. If he has mental health issues, then therapy or addressing those issues can be part of the contract. If he doesn't like these rules, he can find a different place to live. You want to attached BIG HUGE strings to living at home with you. Once he moves in, inertia is a powerful thing. So you will want to make it uncomfortable for him so that he's motivated to get out on his own.[/quote]
